Vice Mayor Lewellen nominated Commissioner Davis as Director. There was consensus for the nomination. Conunissioner James nominated Vice Mayor Lewellen as an Alternate and Mayor Ryan as second alternate. There was consensus for the nomination. 13.2 158 Federal Highway -Discussion and Possible Action to Designate the Structure Historic with Broward County -Sponsored by Mayor Ryan Mayor Ryan explained that the city can apply to designate the structure as historic with the County. Commissioner Salvino commented on ra1smg funds to get the house relocated, the future location of the house and finding grants and funding to assist with this project. Mayor Ryan feels that there is a lot of support from the community, and they have already received a $6,000 donation from those who attended the meeting tonight and he feels that the City and Commission can assist in preserving the history of the city. Vice Mayor Lewellen expressed her concern for the two possible locations of Frost Park and next to the Women's Club. She is happy that the City was able to get more time and is happy to assist with fundraising, but she is also concerned that this property is not the City's. The house is on a property that is not the City's and if the City goes through the process of having it declared historical, it will change the value of the property. The property owner has already indicated they were trying to sell the property and that causes her to have legal concerns. City Attorney Boutsis said she has spoken to the mayor about this, and Be1i J. Hanis would be something to be concerned about in this location. It may be prudent to wait until the city has gathered the money and is able to move it before doing the designation. Discussion continued amongst the Conunission and there was consensus to enter into an agreement to not demolish the home until the end of the year. City Manager Garcia suggested staff will bring back some additional location options at the May meeting and the Commission agreed.
